Density Practice Problems
‘These three equations can be easily
remembered by using the circle below. Simply
equation. cover up the measurement you are trying to
D=m/v solve and you are left with the mathematical
relationship of the remaining two.
Density is the amount of mass per unit volume of a
given object. It can be calculated using the following
If the density of the object arid either mass or volume :
is known, by rearranging the above equation.
m=D Xv
